Joe Friel has personally written training plans for all of our multi-sport events. You can see plan previews and pricing with the links below.
Joe Friel, M.S., author of the Training Bible book series and other books, combines the science of training with his 25 years of coaching experience in training athletes of all abilities to provide you with a training plan designed to meet the demands of your event. Each program contains all of the elements necessary to produce a high level of fitness to help you achieve your goal: aerobic endurance, force, speed skills, and the advanced abilities necessary for your event (muscular endurance, anaerobic endurance, and/or power). A complete day-to-day schedule is laid out for you in simple language to take the guesswork out of your training. Each workout is explained completely, often with contingency plans. The plans you see listed here are very easy to follow.
Getting The Right Shoe - Fit Perfect System from The Starting Block
The technology that has gone into running and walking shoes has made it possible to fit nearly every foot type. Shoes are specifically designed to address a variety of foot shapes, weight differences, and mechanical issues. We understand it is difficult to know which shoe will work best for you. We studied and researched how shoe fitting and gait analysis is being done around the world and we took the best concepts and incorporated them into our computerized FIT PERFECT system.
This dynamic fitting process is available only at The Starting Block! The fitting process ends with slow-speed video gait recordings on a treadmill.
Our FREE Fit Perfect System takes about 20-25 minutes to complete. When done customers can be assured that they have been fitted with a running or walking shoe that is a PERFECT match for their foot type, running level and pronation type.
